Each year, about 13 million people die because of things like pollution and extreme weather caused by climate change. So, on that depressing note, let's talk about how to prepare your finances for the unknowns in this week's episode of Money Feels! We're your hosts, Alyssa and Bridget. Welcome to the podcast, where we talk through our money trauma and create a better understanding of building a healthy relationship with finance.

  • What's going on with the climate crisis?
  • The changing landscape of our retirement
  • Why you need good insurance
  • Using Alberta's weather as an example
  • Why choosing where you live matters
  • How does climate change impact your financial future?
  • Emergency funds for climate change
  • Can we do anything to help?
  • What are some green ways to invest? If any!
